Why people pick Convertful
- Same price, more formats: scroll boxes, welcome mats, inline forms, chat bubbles, spin-to-win, quizzes and polls on top of bars and pop-ups.
- CRM integrations on every plan; Hello Bar reserves HubSpot and Salesforce for Premium and Elite.
- Cart rules and the free shipping bar for stores; Hello Bar publishes no cart-based targeting.
- Pageviews count only when a widget is shown, so 50,000 goes further.
- A $9 Solo plan for small sites, and a WordPress plugin that is actively maintained.
Choose Hello Bar if
- You want a simple announcement bar with A/B testing and little else.
- Your traffic fits inside the free Starter's 5,000 lifetime views.
